Rheodynamic Concrete as a Progressive Viability in the field of Concrete Technology

Abstract

The most important material which is used for the construction of any concrete structure is concrete itself. It is considered to be as a versatile construction material as its properties can be changed by various means, with the help of different elements and as and when required. Rheodynamic Concrete or Self-Compacting Concrete is a special form of concrete which can easily flow into any kind of formwork uniformly, without facing the problem of bleeding and segregation, gives a better finish, has a great characteristic of placement, requires no vibration, and thus gives a safe working environment. Due to a number of merits, this type of concrete had becoming popular in the construction work. Simultaneously, the big industries across the world are producing the by products such as fly ash, rice husk ash, etc. Thus, this paper represents a review, which is done to incorporate these wastes by – products in Self-Compacting Concrete and observe, how the different properties of the same has been modified effectively and efficiently.
